So you saying my best bet would be to stick with AOL @ 3.340" and trim cases to 2.484". That would put me around .019 off of landing. I know it's just a hunting load but I don't mind putting some extra time into the load. I know the smallest thing maters, it took me some time to get my 500 smith...
Sorry for the basic 101 ? about case length but that's what ya'll are here for. Ok for the 30-06 max case length is 2.494 using the Nosler Partition 165 gr. and pushing with some IMR 4350. I did a jam seat on my 06 and I came up with 3.359.5 and plan on dropping back .010 to put me at .349.5. So...
Thanks a mill pharmseller. Sometimes you read something and you think really. I really enjoyed that, down to earth and hit all around. Thanks again for the post and your time.
Thanks for the welcome and thanks for the info.
I was shocked how far off the landing my factory loads were ( 3 different AOL) and thought it was me at 200 plus. I know with me handloading my 06 will take care of that.
Thanks again for your time DrMike
I have a Browning A-Bolt 30-06 and just starting to load for my rifle. I already load for my 500 pistol so why not the rifle. I'm looking max around 350 yrds.
So here it is how for off (or not) the lands are ya'll seating the bullet.
I've read some say back off 15-30.
I have some Nosler...
